We consider a platform with base vertices in a circle and for which the bottom and top plates are related by a rotation and a contraction. It is shown that in this case the platform is always in a singular configuration and that the singular manifold can be parameterized by a scalar parameter.7 pages, 1 figureMathematical PhysicsCharacterization and parameterization of the singular manifold of a simple 6-6 Stewart platformtext
